[Arch of Drusus] Arco di Druso su del quale passava il Condotto Antoniano.

[Arch of Drusus] Arco di Druso su del quale passava il Condotto Antoniano.

Rossini dis. e inc.
Roma 1819.
Etching. 455 x 355mm (18 x 14"), with large margins, uncut.
A view of an arch at the beginning of the Appian Way known as the Arch of Drusus (for Nero Claudius Drusus, the conqueror of the Germans) but probably built later. Some years after construction the arch was utilised by the builders of the Aqua Antoniniana, a branch of the Aqua Marcia.
The first state, before the plate number, issued unbound. From an early 19th century folder titled 'Roman Engravings. The Property of Major E.G.G. Rugdon[?]'.
